I'm rather fond of the perl -pi -e 's///' type "programs." I began to wonder about techniques that might make it possible to use -pi from the middle of a bigger program, similar to the following, but without forking with system.
Is it possible to somehow repopulate @ARGV and re-invoke the command line switches? or something?
Obviously, it'd probably be more appropriate to just write the proper while loop and file copy/renaming code. But changing the file perms and ownerships is cumbersome and I want something slick and easy. Also, the more I think about it, repopulating @ARGV is pretty simple... duh. -Paul In reply to -pi -e argv repeater by jettero
